Ground Floor Opportunity · Mayfair
We're curating the neighborhood café for Mayfair, a new mixed-use development in New Braunfels, Texas. Zero rent for the first two to three years. We're looking for the right operator — not just a tenant.
Tell us about your conceptWhat We're Building
Mayfair is a 1,900-acre mixed-use development in New Braunfels — a city that added 12,000 residents in a single year and shows no sign of slowing down. The people moving here are young, professional, family-oriented. They're not looking for chains. They want a place that belongs to the neighborhood.
We're not filling a space. We're placing a concept. The ground floor shapes how residents experience Mayfair every single day — morning coffee, a working lunch, an after-school snack. We take that seriously.
"Lease-up is not activation. We put it there."
This opportunity is structured to work for the operator first. Zero rent while you build. A real runway. A community that's ready for exactly what independent operators do best.
More people move from Bexar County to New Braunfels than anywhere else. If you're operating in San Antonio, the Hill Country, or anywhere along the I-35 corridor — your regulars are already heading this direction.
This isn't a cold start in an unfamiliar market. It's a familiar brand in a community that's growing fast and hungry for exactly what independent operators do best. You bring the concept. We bring the runway.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for proven independent operators who are ready to grow — not first-timers learning on the job. The deal is structured for the right concept. Here's what we're looking for.
You have at least one successful location. You have a team, a menu, and a system. This isn't your first rodeo.
Counter service capable. Lean team model. Patio and takeout already in your DNA. You serve neighbors, not just visitors.
Your concept makes a place feel more like itself. You have a story. Customers become regulars, not just visitors who pass through.
You're ready for a second or third concept. You've earned the credibility — now you need the runway.
You've modeled your unit economics. You understand what it takes to reach sustainability within the offered runway.
No franchises. No chains. You own your story. We curate local operators for places that need them — not concepts that could exist anywhere.

I've been in your shoes — worked in restaurants, brokered deals, and activated places on the ground. When I bring an opportunity like this, I'm not passing along a flyer. I've done the work to match the right operator to the right place.
If I'm reaching out to you, it's because I believe your concept belongs here.
